When the democrats had media control on Twitter and fb what exactly did they do with that control? And dems still have CNN, msnbc and ABC.A few reasons.
1) Because the Dems don't have nearly as much media control as the GOP/right, so even if you ignore the issue, the right can amplify it. Then you get accused of hiding from the issue.
2) Because lots of people don't like the "just throw this group under the bus for convenience" because it has a really shitty history. It also sends a signal to everyone else -- "If the right throw a fit about an issue, we will absolutely cave and throw you under the bus, so maybe don't support us".
